Sun 20" with a chopper tire


This was my first unicycle.


I bought it on CraigsList, thinking it would be fun to learn a new skill, and soon realized how fun it was to ride. The fat tire made allowed me to learn on the lawn in my backyard, where nobody could see me, so when I finally took it out front on the smooth pavement of the driveway, I could ride way better than I anticipated, and got a big confidence boost.


This unicycle is surprisingly well built, and nearly as strong as my Torker (which was built for offroad) in every respect. The only problem was that it had a pretty slick tread, and knobby tires weren't available for it. The fat tire also made it pretty heavy.
